Whynter Sno Ice 100s 3 in 1 Portable Ice Maker Review

“Purchased from internet appliance vendor about a year...”

Purchased from internet appliance vendor about a year ago. We have been putting water in the top of the unit when the warning light comes on. It makes great ice for drinks and especially if you like to eat ice. Nice white pieces that are easy to chew. Crushed ice is great, better than Sonic. Noisy though when fan is running to keep unit cool. Maintenance instructions are not thorough enough. We've followed the instructions by cleaning with diluted vinegar solution on a regular basis. I've been worried about mold and decided to take a close look today and, sure enough, it is there. I took the screws out of the tray where the ice comes out and there is a thick, gooey mold patch right where the ice comes out. Threads of the stuff come out when draining the unit with each cleaning too. Am now trying to dissemble to take a closer look. Whynter needs to include instructions with cleaning to prevent this issue.
